Will Vinton's Claymation Easter (1992)
Claymation Easter marks the return of Wilshire Pig, with an absurd plan to kidnap the Easter Bunny just days before the holiday and launch himself as the first ever Easter Pig. As one would expect, things go terribly wrong for Wilshire in a serious of disastrous and hilarious misadventures. As with all of Will Vinton's creations, totally off-the-wall comedy is matched with eye-popping animation.

Simply Perfect
Sadly Over-hyped
Just perfect...
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
This little movie is one of the best holiday movies ever made. A pig decides to kidnap the Easter Bunny and take the job for himself to make some much needed cash. After capturing him in a vacum, he dawns a blue bunny costume, and hires a rabbit radio personality to make him become rabbit like. After his rabbit teacher learns of the plan, he feeds both the Easter Bunny and him to a shark. He then enters himself in a contest to determine the next Easter Bunny. He cheats his way through the contest and wins, only to be turned down when the real Easter Bunny returns. Very funny and Underated flick.
